[Transposition of the male urethra]

Severe traumatic loss of urethra during pelvic fracture was replaced in a small boy by perineal transposition of the penile urethra. In the first stage a "pull-through" operation was performed as described by Solowow-Badenoch, which resulted in a total withdrawal of penis. In the second the urethra was cut behind the glans, the penis was straightened and the urethral meatus was opened in the perineum. In the third stage the perineal hypospadias was treated.
